Abstract:Exchange-biased bilayers are widely used as reference layers in nanometric spintronic devices. While the magnetic properties of polycrystalline multilayers are widely reported, the exchange bias effect in nanostructures containing amorphous ferromagnetic layers are not systematically investigated. In this work, CoFeB/IrMn antidot and nanodot arrays were patterned by nanosphere lithography. The average diameter of pores in the antidot arrays changes from 88 nm to 105 nm as the thin film thickness increases from… Show more
